Read the articles, and other relevant articles. The answers are quite clear. I also suggest you read Thomas Friedman's "The Lexus and the Olive Tree" for a better understanding of Globalization, transparency, and International business. I fully agree with his theories, as they have been proved correct over time. But to give you a basic answer, countries that deal with bribery and not by a fair set of rules suffer at the end, as it prevents an influx of international monies into their country. It also leads to unstable governments and lack of security for investments in the area.
Hope you can understand, it may be above you.
